Science Starts Here
Hydrogen 1 will be the first ground-up, purpose-built life science building in the Los Angeles region, redefining the standard for laboratory space in Southern California. A place for academia, startup communities, and mature life science companies to converge and collide, Hydrogen 1 will present opportunities for the entire life cycle of the life science industry. Designed for biotech and healthcare uses from the ground up, the meticulously curated creative spaces will be built to support the golden age of biotech and the flourishing science industries for generations to come.
Located at one of LA’s most iconic intersections (Pico Blvd & Sepulveda Blvd), among some of the world’s most valuable brands (Apple, Alphabet/Google, Amazon), and centered within the most desirable Westside commercial market Hydrogen 1 will be where your life science venture begins.
Key Attributes
Purpose-Built for the Life Sciences

Collaborative Environments
HATCHspaces® is a science focused real estate platform dedicated towards simplifying the process of scientific innovation by delivering meticulously curated creative spaces for emerging companies within the life sciences and STEAM disciplines.
As part of the NexCore Science & Technology team, HATCHspaces projects and our tenant/partners benefit from long-standing relationships with research universities, hospital systems, science industry trade associations, tech transfer departments, the venture capital community, and the local network of science incubators and accelerator programs. We work to design spaces and ecosystems that support industry collaboration and social interaction.
Center of Gravity for Science & Healthcare
Hydrogen 1 is at the center of LA’s most dominant cluster of science & healthcare activity. West LA is home to two major research hospitals, the Ronald Reagan/ UCLA Medical Center and Cedars Sinai. Westwood is also home the largest medical research university in Southern California and 12th largest NIH grant recipient in the country, UCLA. Adjacent to two leading incubator programs, three biotech accelerators, and the country’s largest accelerator for medical device, digital health, and diagnostics companies, Hydrogen 1 provides scientists with the ability to be located within the center of gravity for all life science activity in the region.
